Who ever said Curly hair is Low Maintenance was on an LSD Trip...curly hair is so needy of attention and care.
I agree.. I say this all the time.. Curly hair is definitely NOT wash-n-go hair..

Thanks for that Aphrodiva. Is the Proclaim Gloss Drops w/ Olive Oil one thing or do you have to add olive oil to it?

Hi Cat_Goddess!

Is my pleasure to help!

The Drops I use are ProClaim Gloss Drops w/ Olive Oil =This one is when I wash my hair and I apply on wet hair and let air dry. It will leave hair like new.  Then when hair is dry apply a little more oil and brush with a thick thoot comb to separate the curls.
Then idf I am planning using a flat iron I use the IC straighting oil (pink bottle) same shape as the Proclaim Gloss Drops.

Also, after I deep condition my hair I re-condition with the Pantene Ice Shine Conditioner ( I messed up and typed Glacial Shine before, I apologize). This gives the hair a great nice shine also, I love it.

A great tip is to try to skip the shampoo from time to time and do a "Conditioner Wash only". Curly hair bu nature tends to need a lot of TLC because it tends to freez and get dry easy.  Shampoo sometimes contributes to dryness.

I also want to tell you that the PreCurl can be Roller set also and man! will look sooooo pretty, I did it once and loved it. But since y hair is naturally curly I continued using the Precurl as it is  (wash and Go)

I hope the hair works for you as it works for me. Keep me updated please.

Aphrodiva!
Hi!
 
I follow your suggestions for hair types after you suggested the Unique Wiiv Body wave and I fell madly in love with it.  I currently have an install of Modu Pre Curl and am also loving it, although it doesn't feel as soft to me as the Unique Wiiv. When this comes down, my Unique Wiiv is going back in.
 
Here is my question for you......In one of your posts you mentioned a "Glacial Shine conditioner" and some drops that you really liked. Could you be a doll and tell me the exact brands and names of this conditioner and the drops that you liked so much? 
 
Thanks so much Beautiful Aphrodiva!
